We're off to the 13th century - join Beth and David as they travel across Central Asia, with Marco Polo.

They talk about what it's like to enjoy a missing episode, stunning sets, and a monkey that pees on people.

This one is a little bit heavier, as the team chat about the first, and sadly not last, example of racism in Doctor Who. There's a lot of strong language at this point.
